Hello my friends. It's Tuesday, December00:00:02
30th, 2025. And yesterday I reported in00:00:05
my three big stories just a couple of00:00:07
news articles where Lavro was saying00:00:09
that Putin's palace was being attacked.00:00:13
And I was thinking that's strange. Well,00:00:15
we'll find out more about it, I'm sure,00:00:17
and see some footage and that sort of00:00:19
thing. And sure enough, there's nothing00:00:21
there. Okay, let's let's explain what's00:00:24
going on here. >> [snorts]00:00:25
>> Putin said that overnight Ukrainian00:00:26
forces attacked his residence in Nogarad00:00:30
Oblast with 91 drones. Before that claim00:00:34
had been published, Russian authorities00:00:35
reported this morning that they had down00:00:38
41 drones over the entire Oblast and00:00:41
even less over that area around00:00:42
Nilgarod. It was really interesting. So00:00:45
that that's why my mind was going,00:00:47
"Well, that's interesting. We'll see.00:00:48
Maybe maybe it happened during the day00:00:50
or something along those lines." Nope,00:00:52
that's not it. Now, before we get to00:00:54
that big story, let's go over a little00:00:57
bit of what happened. Normally last00:00:58
night, this is unusual to talk about00:01:00
this kind of big event when I usually00:01:03
talk about drones overnight and what's00:01:06
going on on the ground. Footage of the00:01:08
actual attack that targeted occupied00:01:10
Daetsk airport. The airport is used for00:01:12
launching and storing UAVs most of the00:01:15
time. So on the night of December 30th,00:01:17
the 414th Muyar birds of the Ukrainian00:01:20
army conducted mass strike on a facility00:01:23
used for storage equipment and launch00:01:25
preparation for Shahed and Garan UAVs at00:01:28
Daetsk airport. The targets hit Garan00:01:30
and Shahed logistics hub, pre-fight00:01:32
[snorts] pre-flight preparation and00:01:34
maintenance site, central warhead00:01:36
storage for Garan and Shaheds, and00:01:39
accumulation warehouse for Gerba UAVs,00:01:42
personnel and technical staff00:01:43
concentration point. Okay, so that's00:01:46
what they were doing. This is what I00:01:47
would normally be talking about. Um, but00:01:51
we just have to talk about this. It just00:01:53
I I can't not. Okay, what a miracle. In00:01:56
an age when everyone has a camera in00:01:58
their pocket, even in Russia, not a00:02:00
single person somehow saw or heard any00:02:02
massive Ukrainian attack on Putin's00:02:04
residence, which didn't even make it00:02:06
into the official daily military00:02:08
reports. Every Ukrainian strike on00:02:11
Russian airfields, oil refineries, is00:02:13
filmed every night from 10 different00:02:15
angles. Yet, this supposed assassination00:02:18
attempt on Putin magically appeared00:02:21
after the fact just in time for a phone00:02:23
call between Putin and Trump. That's00:02:25
that's really remarkable timing. But I'm00:02:27
not going to talk about the why in this00:02:29
video. I'm going to talk about the did00:02:31
it happen? Is it plausible? Did Did00:02:34
anything really occur? Hundreds of00:02:37
drones shot down over Valdai. Nope.00:02:39
Nobody heard a thing. Residents of00:02:41
Valdai in Russia's Nogarod region say00:02:44
that they noticed no attack at all. But00:02:46
14 locals interviewed by the outlet uh00:02:50
particular news outlet tell a different00:02:52
story. One, no SMS warnings. Two, no00:02:56
buzzing sounds. Three, no explosions.00:02:58
Four, no local chatter, nothing. A local00:03:01
put it simply, if something like that00:03:03
had happened, the whole town would have00:03:05
been talking about it 100%. Yeah, of00:03:07
course something would have been talking00:03:09
about it, but uh we're just making it00:03:11
up. That's that's what this amounts to.00:03:13
SOTA is a um a Russian opposition00:03:17
newspaper00:03:19
attack on Putin's Valdi residence.00:03:21
Presumably a Kremlin fake. Now, I'm not00:03:24
one to jump like right to the this is a00:03:27
false flag. It has to be a false flag,00:03:29
but this is what they're saying here,00:03:30
and I'm just reporting what is seen from00:03:33
multiple angles. Such an attack appears00:03:36
technically impossible. They say00:03:38
airplane type UAVs used by Ukrainians or00:03:41
Ukraine fly at low altitudes along an00:03:43
almost straight trajectory. When00:03:45
launched from Ukraine's northern border,00:03:47
the UAVs would inevitably cross spec uh00:03:50
specially protected airspace. see the00:03:52
map with strategic missile forces00:03:54
facilities, air defense units, military00:03:57
aviation, closed administrative00:03:59
formations like Sonetski Ozerin and so00:04:03
on. A drone reaching the D uh diner00:04:06
residence, that's the one that was00:04:08
theoretically attacked by crossing the00:04:11
territory of these facilities could only00:04:13
do so by a miracle or through deliberate00:04:16
negligence by military command. And you00:04:18
see like the things that they have to00:04:19
fly through in order to get there. and00:04:21
it just seems implausible. Peskov was00:04:24
asked about this and Pescov says00:04:27
Russia's not going to provide any00:04:28
evidence. Question: could you tell us00:04:31
whether there is, so to speak, any00:04:33
tangible evidence of this attempted00:04:35
attack on the presidential residence and00:04:37
whether Russia intends to present it,00:04:39
for example, debris from drones that00:04:41
were shot down. Pescos's reply was, "I00:04:44
don't think any evidence is required00:04:45
here if such a massive drone attack was00:04:48
carried out." And thanks to the00:04:49
well-coordinated work of air defense,00:04:51
the drones were shot down and00:04:53
neutralized. As for debris, I can't00:04:55
comment on that. This is naturally a00:04:57
matter for our military. Well, if you00:04:59
had the evidence, wouldn't you think00:05:01
that just providing the tiding the00:05:03
evidence out would be a natural thing to00:05:05
do. What I do know is that we see00:05:08
Zalinsky himself trying to deny it. Many00:05:10
[snorts] Western media outlets beginning00:05:12
to push the narrative that this00:05:13
supposedly never happened. Well, okay.00:05:17
If I were to accuse you of being a00:05:19
thief, you stole a million dollars. No,00:05:21
no, let's go with 10 million. $10000:05:23
million. If if I were accusing you of00:05:26
having stolen $100 million, wouldn't I00:05:29
want to provide like receipts or some00:05:31
kind of data tracking or something to00:05:32
say that? And and if you denied stealing00:05:35
$100 million, wouldn't it be reasonable00:05:38
to say like prove it, [laughter]00:05:40
right? So, I I think that's where we00:05:42
are, but they're not going to prove it.00:05:45
That's how bold-faced they are right00:05:46
now. Uh yeah. Okay. The circumstances of00:05:50
this alleged strike targeting Putin's00:05:53
residents in Nogarad do not conform,00:05:55
this is the ISW, do not conform to the00:05:57
pattern of observed evidence when00:05:59
Ukrainian forces conduct strikes in00:06:02
Russia. And the Kremlin has offered no00:06:04
evidence to support its claim. Confirmed00:06:06
Ukrainian strikes in Russia typically00:06:08
generate evidence observable in open00:06:10
sources. Such evidence includes footage,00:06:13
explosions, fire, or smoke plumes near00:06:16
targeted objects. Statements from local00:06:19
and regional authorities usually00:06:21
downplaying successful Ukrainian strikes00:06:24
as debris from downed drones. ISW has00:06:27
not observed any such footage, nor local00:06:30
regional reporting about Ukrainian00:06:32
strikes near Putin's residence to00:06:34
cooperate Lavro's claims. LVO's claim of00:06:37
downing 89 Ukrainian drones over00:06:39
Novagarad. And remember, there's 9100:06:41
total. They down 89. Is also00:06:44
inconsistent with Russian Ministry of00:06:47
Defense's claim that Russian forces down00:06:49
47 Ukrainian drones over the Oblast00:06:51
overnight December 28 to 29.00:06:56
Okay. Well, I mean, but I mean, it's00:06:58
it's hard to keep up when you're making00:07:00
up stuff. Apparently uh the Russian00:07:03
Ministry of Defense R US earlier00:07:05
reported intercepting 89 drones in total00:07:09
overnight including 18 overnight over00:07:13
Nogarad region. Russian officials are00:07:15
lying again. Here's the official where00:07:17
they're breaking it out to 18 over that00:07:19
particular region. Okay. Russian00:07:22
Ministry of Defense initially reported00:07:24
89 drones for all Russian regions. 18 in00:07:28
Novearad where Valdai is. Residents did00:07:30
not hear air defense activity. There is00:07:33
no photo or video evidence of an attack.00:07:36
The area is GP a GPS dead zone difficult00:07:38
for drones to navigate. There are at00:07:41
least 12 Pancer S1 air defense systems00:07:44
that are permanently stationed around00:07:45
the Valdi complex. Such an attack would00:07:48
sabotage, now this is the why, and we'll00:07:51
talk about the why in the next video.00:07:53
Such an attack would sabotage Ukraine's00:07:55
own interest by giving Russia an excuse00:07:57
to increase its air campaign or strike00:08:00
Ukrainian government buildings, harden00:08:01
its negotiating stance, or whatever it00:08:03
is. There's there's multiple reasons why00:08:06
the Ukrainians probably wouldn't do00:08:08
this. And here's like where where the00:08:11
air defense is located, right? Like00:08:13
you're this if this is the place, you're00:08:15
not getting through that probably,00:08:17
right?00:08:18
Adam Kinzinger, former Republican00:08:20
congressman, says, "It appeared the00:08:23
whole Putin Ukraine tried to kill me00:08:25
with 91 drones last night was entirely00:08:27
made up." And of course, Trump repeated00:08:30
it and said he was mad at Ukraine.00:08:33
Nightly, Russia launches drones and00:08:36
missiles at innocent people and try to00:08:38
kill Zinsky every day. Spare me the00:08:40
gaslight. And that does seem to be what00:08:43
the evidence points to, as has happened00:08:45
here. It's gaslighting. Now, what was00:08:46
going on last night? Explosions in00:08:48
Harkke. Not a lot. There were 62. Now,00:08:52
it's 62 Russian uh drones uh and and I00:08:56
think one missile. 62, right? So, um00:09:00
let's look at this. You Russia saving00:09:03
up. They saved up 100 three nights ago.00:09:06
Two 125 last night, about 100 this00:09:10
night. We're going to round 62.00:09:13
Okay. So 325 saved up plus 150 that they00:09:17
can average per day. So they're they're00:09:20
going to have a big strike here00:09:22
tomorrow, next day, something like that.00:09:24
Whatever it is, they're saving up for a00:09:26
big big strike. Let's look at the00:09:28
battlefield. 1,220. The average is 12 uh00:09:32
1030. Um it might have gone up to maybe,00:09:35
let's say, 1050 or something, but 10:3000:09:37
or so off the battlefield is the average00:09:39
for the year. uh or more recently five00:09:43
tanks off the battlefield, four armored00:09:45
fighting vehicles, 19 artillery systems,00:09:48
and 119 vehicles and fuel tanks. So 122000:09:51
is a lot higher than what we usually00:09:53
see. Ukrainian forces, this is the ISW,00:09:56
Ukrainian forces recently advanced near00:09:58
Severk, Alexandrifka and Julipole.00:10:01
Russian forces recently advanced in00:10:03
western Zaricia, Oblast, Dolberilia and00:10:07
near Prosque00:10:09
direction. There were 40 uh attacks by00:10:12
Russians on Prosk. Uh at Prosk as of00:10:15
December 29th, Chuck Farer, former Navy00:10:18
Seal says full Russian seizure of the00:10:21
elomeration is possible in the coming00:10:23
weeks or months, but at prohibitive00:10:26
cost. So it is possible that they can do00:10:28
it. Will they take it by the end of00:10:30
2025? That's not happening. That's00:10:32
tomorrow, right? Uh but will could they00:10:34
could they take it in in months, maybe00:10:36
even weeks? Yes. But it's going to cost00:10:38
them dearly. Now, listen. No rapid00:10:40
Russian operational breakthroughs are00:10:42
expected. Ukrainian reinforcements and00:10:45
deteriorating winter conditions will00:10:47
stall further Russian momentum allowing00:10:49
Ukrainian stabilization or even limited00:10:52
counter moves. So, just as I was talking00:10:54
about, the winter has come and it's00:10:56
going to tamp down the momentum.00:10:59
Julipole direction in Zaparicia region.00:11:01
There were 22 assaults. Constantin what00:11:05
it looks like now. It's a ghost town.00:11:06
Constantin is being destroyed right now.00:11:09
This is Sir Sterno saying this in parts00:11:12
of the city and they won't stop just00:11:13
like that. They can only be stopped by00:11:16
force. Here are some images of00:11:18
Constantin.00:11:20
And it's just Yeah. And it's just just00:11:23
destruction and mayhem wherever the00:11:25
Russians have gone. Okay. and what00:11:27
Kiance looks like. A city that Harkke in00:11:29
a hark region where fighting continues.00:11:32
Earlier pro-war Russian bloggers claimed00:11:35
that Russian troops had been encircled00:11:37
in Kubiance and that's true. Now what's00:11:40
funny about this is Sergey Kus Kusovv00:11:44
[snorts] reported to Putin, this was on00:11:46
the 29th, this was just yesterday that00:11:48
the Ukrainian forces in Coupons will be00:11:50
destroyed in January to February. Wait a00:11:54
minute. Wait a minute. The same general00:11:57
previously received the title of hero of00:11:59
Russia from Putin for the liberation of00:12:02
Kiance. This was less than a month ago.00:12:05
And yeah, so they're going to get him00:12:07
out by January, February, even though00:12:08
they've taken the entire city. Okay. Now00:12:11
Putin is ordering the entire the army to00:12:14
occupy Coupiance in a tacit admission00:12:17
that in spite of his previous boasting,00:12:19
Russia is not there. Ukraine still00:12:21
controls it. Okay.00:12:25
reported. Now, now look, when you look00:12:27
at this kind of thing that they're00:12:29
reporting things that just were not00:12:31
true, it makes you wonder if maybe this00:12:34
attack on the Valdai or Yeah, the Valdai00:12:37
Palace or dinner palace, whatever it is,00:12:40
maybe that's not true. You got to00:12:42
wonder. Reported advance toward00:12:44
Zafaricia, the offensive that exists00:12:46
only in briefings. Uh Russian general00:12:49
staff reported to Putin that Russian00:12:50
forces had allegedly advanced to within00:12:52
15 kilometers of the southern outskirts00:12:54
of Zabberia. Deep state mapping seems to00:12:57
refute this. But again, do you believe00:12:59
them? Because you know if they if you00:13:02
lie about one thing or you're likely to00:13:04
be lying about something else. Newly00:13:07
published footage 50 km is the claimed00:13:09
range reached by Ukraine's Tashka drones00:13:13
during fiber optic FPV strikes on00:13:15
Russian targets. 50 kilometer range on00:13:19
drones. So what's going to happen is00:13:21
that that gray area is going to expand00:13:24
and expand and expand from 25 to 40 to00:13:27
50 kilometers. And that'll be an00:13:30
interesting thing to separate combatants00:13:32
and keep keep them apart. Arishnik on00:13:35
combat duty in Barus.00:13:38
But again, is it really? You got to ask00:13:40
yourself. Arishnik on combat duty in00:13:42
Barus, Europe now within 5,500 kilometer00:13:46
range. The Russian Defense Ministry00:13:47
claims that the Arishnik missile has00:13:50
transferred to Russia has already gone00:13:52
on combat duty in Bellarus.00:13:55
But again, I'm not sure whether you can00:13:57
believe him or not. I mean, I'm not00:13:58
trying to roll the dice, but you got to00:14:00
wonder. Okay, let's just sum up here. It00:14:03
would appear that the Russians did not00:14:05
even bother to set stage a false flag on00:14:08
Putin's residence. They just apparently00:14:10
thought it would suffice to tell Trump00:14:12
the attack had taken place and he was00:14:14
upset about this. All right, my shout00:14:16
out is to Fritz Brown, a graduate00:14:18
Patreon patron. Thank you, Fritz. The00:14:20
point here is that Trump must pressure00:14:22
Putin. Uh, and if if Trump doesn't00:14:24
pressure Putin, nothing's going to00:14:26
happen. But if Trump believes whatever00:14:29
Putin says, even if the evidence doesn't00:14:32
isn't there, that becomes deeply00:14:34
problematic. Let's talk about our00:14:36
fundraiser. We're working with project00:14:38
projects campaign 22. We started at00:14:41
205,000 that they had raised before uh00:14:44
Pete the medic's untimely death just00:14:47
like a year ago. Uh and now we're up to00:14:51
$226,000.00:14:53
I'll place the link down below if you00:14:56
want to give to that. Thank you my00:14:58
friends for that. I really do appreciate00:15:00
your support for this kind of great00:15:02
work. And I'll leave you with this. This00:15:03
was a lot to try to digest. So, National00:15:06
Ge Geographic showed a penguin trying to00:15:08
calm down. In the footage, the penguin00:15:11
is breathing deeply as if doing00:15:13
breathing exercises. Video gained00:15:16
millions of views in less than a day.00:15:17
We're all like that at the end of the00:15:19
year. Calm down and take deep breaths.00:15:26
It's working for me already. Thank you,00:15:27
my friends, for your time, for the00:15:29
likes, for the shares, the subscribes.00:15:31
Thank you for being the kind of person00:15:33
who cares about Ukraine.Description:
Russia claims Ukraine launched a massive swarm of 91 drones at Vladimir Putin’s Valdai residence. The Kremlin calls it an assassination attempt. Ukraine denies it entirely. But when we look at the geospatial reality, the Russian story fractures. Why would Ukraine waste precious long-range assets on a symbolic target with zero military value? Why is there no visual evidence of such a massive engagement? In this video, we analyze the anomalies of the Valdai incident. We examine the lack of strategic logic, the silence from open-source intelligence, and the very real possibility that this was a manufactured crisis designed to justify a new Russian escalation. Facts over noise. Context over headlines. Truth over talking points. FUNDRAISER: https://donorbox.org/project-tetyana
